This is the content I subscribed for, and the content I still sub for to this day. I get that you have a passion for the film making thing, and more power to you. There's plenty of room for both. As long as the nerds like me get a nice 30-60 minute raw flight video with lots of technical commentary and radio comms every once in a while, I'll be watching! Still the best GA channel out there.

Grass makes the best landing surface. Even in my Mooney, I enjoy landing on grass strips. Keep in mind though, when you transition from grass to hard surface, cross it at a 45 degree angle, not perpendicular. It keeps the porpoising down if/when there is a dip right before the pavement.

Have to agree head cam is hard to watch. But it did show that your interior door frames need a little TLC (clean/sand/paint). A great future shop maintenance video for those of us with OCD tendencies about things we play with! Look forward to seeing the process and final end result. Other than the head cam, great content.

Hey Josh, something I learned during my CFI training is it is slightly counter-intuitive to take the nose wheel completely off the ground like that as since you're pitched up, you will be causing more drag which will increase the roll out. In turn, I was taught to reduce the pressure off the nose gear, just barely enough where it is either barely touching the ground or just a centimeter or two off of it. Let me know what you think!

Nice! As a student pilot I was going through the check lists as you were going through them. It gave me a chance to chair fly what you were doing. I even pulled out the E6-B when you got the local winds to determine what kind of crosswind you going to have, which was confirmed when you mentioned the stiff wind and your track on final. Thanks!

Hi Josh, this vlog brought back a wonderful time in my life. My dad trained in an L19 when he earned his wings at Gary Air Force base in San Marcos. Much of his training required soft field landings. When we had our C172 later, he and I would fly to a farm in South Carolina where his flying buddy lived and he would refresh his soft field landing skills on his grass runway. Some of my fondest memories as a kid.

Back in the 60's when I was earning my first "Ticket", I chose to get my Private in tail wheel aircraft. Our home strip had both grass and paved runways. Landing on grass you will decelerate faster. But taking off from grass, dirt, sod, gravel your acceleration is slower then on pavement. To me, these were always the key differences.

Only difference is that after ground effect I needed to climb out Vx to clear the trees ahead and then to Vy, and then power back and level off at 600' to be under KISP's Class C. Really fun to see your video today.

My initial flight training was on a grass strip in Macomb Illinois in the middle 1960s. Thought nothing of it. The earth was very solid and not mushy. I did many many touch and goes. Did not seem like any trouble at all. Now Macomb has a newer airport with paved runway. But looking on Google maps I think the old grass strip still exists!

Hi Josh, great videos as always! With a quiet grass strip all to yourself, you could practice glide approaches which are a useful skill in a forced landing situation. When I was learning at a small strip many years ago, I would pull the power on base and try to make it to the threshold without adding power - great fun! By contrast, powered approaches feel risky over trees or rough terrain as one is depending on the engine not to quit.
